On October 20, Matt learned that you’re never too old to go back to high school – when he was invited to mentor, learn from and be inspired by the Mary Institute and Saint Louis Country Day School (MICDS) Student Investment Group.

The students were quick learners too. As covered in news of the event, 17-year-old Jacob Platin observed: “The greatest thing I learned was that the best way of investing, and going about problems in general, is to use academic and evidence-based methods that put rationality before ‘gut feelings’ and irrationally.”

Well said, Jacob! When the time comes, we’ll look forward to helping you get your own career started as an evidence-based advisor.
